Got combination diced chicken and shrimp and got mostly rice. Very disappointed for a $14.66 with tip. Maybe I got the wrong thing…foods good so I may just try something else in the future. Update: thank you for the feedback back. Last night I was tired and didn’t go through the whole tray, but man yall really do pack these trays; saw a lot more shrimp this morning 😃 I definitely will be going back. Can’t wait to try more!

@June.2025 I ordered No.70 Moo Goo Gai Pan, small size. It comes with Jasmine rice. It was very tasty. I especially liked the chicken, it was probably poached beforehand, and tender. They say it’s small size but it was not very small to me, was just perfect for one meal for me. Stuffs were nice too. The paper bag was soaked with juice out of tray and the bottom was broken when I was walking. I almost wasted the food. You might want a plastic bag.

Food is great! The best in town. They’re always super busy but they get you in and out in a timely manner! The guys up front that run the phones and registers are always super nice, kind and patient. They always thank you for your business. I appreciate their hard work and dedication big time!! 🙏🏽

I visited Golden Wok for the 1st time on Thursday. I was torn between GW and Golden Dragon. I did not like my food. But it was probably what I ordered and not a reflection of the restaurant. However, the customer service was a 10/10. The two gentleman at the front counter could not have been any nicer and more helpful. The restaurant had a constant flow of business and it was very clean. I would definitely give them a 2nd try and pick something else.

My friend picked us up dinner. She got the spicy shrimp and broccoli with Lo mein and I got the sesame chicken with fried rice. The lo mein, Shrimp and Chicken were all good. The rice was hard and needed to be cooked longer. They came with Egg rolls which were both delicious.

Strip mall restaurant in a small space, with several eat-in tables. Many take out customers evident on multiple visits. The food here is excellent. Delicious lemon chicken, fantastic Chow May Fun curried noodle dish with chicken, shrimp, roasted pork. The Chinese cuisine here is as tasty as you will find anywhere.

Still as good as advertised. Always a solid option in the area for quick Chinese food. There's always a crowd in here, and rightfully so. I can usually get here around lunch time so get the special. Nice size portion that I always have leftovers to eat later. Prices are very reasonable. You have to get an order of the crab rations. Perfect compliment to your meal.

This a visit based on a recent yelp review of Golden Wok. I order the Chow Mein to see what the complaint was. The poster had complained about it coming over rice. After trying the dish I understand the confusion. I had to do some research but yes, on the east coast it is not unheard of to have chow mein over rice. When the order was taken I was asked if I would like that with noodles. But wanted it as the poster had received. At first glance, a very white meal. Chicken, bok choy, onions celery and snow peas. The sauce was plenty for the dish and it was served with white rice. It was as described. A good dish. I personally would have liked it over the noodles as well but this is what I ordered. I got an egg roll (as always). Hand made egg rolls are hard to pass up. Of course I got the dumpling sauce to go with it. Great service and good as always.

I've had the food before and it's good overall, but the recent service experience was so poor I had to review. I ordered online in advance through yelp. Arrived 20 min later and it wasn't ready. It was crowded and I was fine waiting. I gave my full name and they continued to call names. I never left the establishment. 45 minutes in my husband goes back up and the bag was just sitting off to the side. I wasn't called. I had a neon shirt on and there was no communication. When she gave over the bag she just stared. Not a great experience.

The food is fantastic. I had house fried rice without chicken but with extra pork and additional eggs (extra charge). It was delicious and there the number of shrimp was generous. The pork egg roll was tasty, too, and they're larger than the average pork egg rolls at other restaurants, and fresher tasting. I took away one star because they offer an inferior "soy sauce" in those ugly little clear packets. I tried to tell the guy at the cashier and he had no clue. It's not even soy sauce...it's made of water, corn syrup and caramel color! There probably isn't a soybean within miles of the manufacturing plant where they make these awful things. So the message from Golden Wok is, "Here's your delicious food. Now enjoy it by drizzling it with water and corn syrup." They need to get some Kikkoman packets in there. For that reason, I'll always order takeout OR bring my own SOY sauce with me.

This is my go to for the absolute best Asian food in Greensboro. Even when I just want a little bite this place is perfect. Stopped in today after Christmas shopping and had an egg roll and some amazing wonton soup. The best in town. Don't just take my word. Try them.

My favorite place for egg drop soup. Now I finally purchased a meal - Crispy Scallion Chicken. It is delicious!!! I purchased it for dinner and there is plenty left for lunch and/or dinner tonight. It's the best Chinese food I had in 35yrs!!!!! I say try it if you are in the fence. The best in Gbo & Raleigh ! !!!!! The staff is awesome as well......

Best tasting Chinese food around. The food is fresh, crispy, and cooked to perfection. I don't mind driving 20+ minutes to eat here.

This place has been a favorite for Chinese food in this area as long as I've been in Greensboro, since 1994. Family run and they will roll out the red carpet for you for sure. They will all remember your order, your name and how you like your food prepared, if any special requests. The food is always fresh and flavorful. The prices are very reasonable for what to get. My fave is the diced chicken and shrimp with broccoli and the general Tso's chicken. Just come in and see John or Eddie at the front and their hospitality and food will make you want to come back. The restaurant is clean and simple. Seating is good for a quick dinner or lunch. It can get quite busy so I prefer carry-out Check the hours as they do try and have a life outside the restaurant Treat yourself!

It's good. My first try with them last night I'd probably rare 3 stars but I'm granting that there would be a bit of a decline in quality from traveling a half hour home from work and sitting a bit. Good flavor, but I wouldn't say they're as good as Jade Garden, so that still has my lead. Solid though if you live closer by. Food was done quickly, even despite being dinner rush on a Friday. Food is packed in tin foil containers, so I'm not sure what that other reviewer is talking about with not being wasteful. Good egg rolls. Wish they still did shrimp toast and had chow fun with the thick noodles. Hard to find those around here. I'd get them again if I was gonna have locally, but otherwise I wouldn't call it my go-to spot.

The quality of the food is alright, seems clean, but if you're expecting to get your food on time you'll bee waiting! Both times I've been here they told me 15 mins. Both times I waited 45 mins to an hour. All I ordered was wings & rice. Second time I called it in, came in the store after waiting 20 mins, then waited another 35 mins b/c they never called my name out or put my food on the black cart where it should have been. Get outside & my food is barely warm.

I was referred to the Golden Wok from a hotel and placed my order. To my surprise and pleasure it was very tasty. Will definitely order from there again when back in town.

I was in the plaza doing some shopping and decided to grab something in before calling it a night. As I departed from Ross, Golden Wok caught my eye so I decided to hear over! Before walking in, you could see the cleanliness of the restaurant from the outside. It's super bright with vibrant colors which adds to the curb appeal and draws you in. Upon arriving at the county I was immediately greeted and presented with a menu. As I figured out what I wanted, the aromas of fresh garlic and the sounds of rice being fried captured my attention and made me even more hungry. LoL!!! Deciding on the General Tso Chicken combo and substituting the Vegetable Fried Rice for Pork Fried Rice, I placed my order and took a seat, paid, and took a seat. As I was waiting for my food, I could tell it was going to be a good dish. People were in and out picking up their orders and you could tell by how they interacted with the cashier that they were repeat customers. This is always a good sign. Upon receiving my food I was once again captured by the aroma. This time it was the aromas of General Tso Chicken and a fresh out of the grease Pork Egg Roll!! Oh yeah... Let's Eat!!! Upon opening my tray the visual alone let me know this was going to be a good eat. LoL. The General Tso Chicken was perfectly made. Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The sauce has a perfect level of spice with a hint of sweet. I'm talking goooooooddddddddd. Truly a 10 out of 10. The Pork Fried Rice wasn't dry, had the perfect golden fried color and tender meaty chunks of pork. The Pork Egg Roll was packed full of fresh fixings and fried to golden egg roll perfection. I truly enjoyed my Golden Wok experience. If you're in the area and looking for something with great quality, great flavors, and filling... You must stop in.

Golden Wok is the only Chinese take out place where they're always busy, and that shows how consistently good the food is! I usually order on weekdays and grab their lunch special since it's really affordable and the wait wasn't too long, about 10-15mins. Their lunch special runs from 11-3pm Monday-Fridays and everything is under $10. Such a great deal! I ordered the general tso's chicken since I was craving something spicy. Oddly, it tasted like sesame chicken since it was on the sweeter side and I couldn't find any spice since it was missing the dry chili peppers. Nevertheless, I still ate the rest because it was still very good. My order was still fresh; Chicken had a nice slight crunch and the fried rice was great.

I realize it's been quite a long time since I updated my review so here goes (EDIT: and I am not sure why but my original review is gone -- so here is a long overdue one!) Golden Wok is my go-to for Chinese in Greensboro and beyond. It is NY Style single page menu with options for everyone. Even if you don't see it on the menu, just ask - Eddie & John will take care of your dietary needs. You don't go here for the Formica seating and linoleum floors - but rather for the food - it's plentiful, fresh, and more than filling! Do not hesitate to order. Be sure to place your Christmas day order early if you are planning to make Golden Wok part of your holiday dining options!

I am doing a 2nd edit and changing to 5 stars. Earlier today they made an error. I was not happy with their response to the error. Since then, they reached out to me and apologized for the error and they requested the refund themselves. I did not have to call Grubhub. This is a sign of good customer service. Redeemed! Good job!

Yes, yes with the Golden Wok hype! It certainly is worth 5 stars! Excellent, polite service. Clean environment. Reasonable prices and portions. Freshly cooked and yummy. I wish they were near me in DC or FL. I'd be a regular. Meanwhile, head on in!

First time ordering here but I will be a repeat customer. The food was excellent. We ordered Sweet & Sour Chicken, Pepper Steak and House Soup. Everything was delicious! We ordered all large sizes as we like to have left overs to make another meal. OMG the portions are so large, it will easily make 3 meals. I wish I had taken pictures but I didn't - next time I will so you can see how much food you get.

WOW! Just WOW! Chinese used to be my favorite food. Then something happened along the way and it started to all taste the same: greasy, dried out, bad taste, stale/ old tasting, too much soy sauce to hide the not so fresh ingredients. The list goes on. This place tough! This place is amazing. The food is so fresh and delicious. It is actual flavor! Chicken and cashews: good poems of chicken, cashews, and some of the best fried rice! Great flavor! The carrots were a bit Al dente which I loved! Not soggy, over cooked crap. Looked like it was cut from a knife in their kitchen vs an old frozen bag of carrots or pre mixed rice. Veggie Lo Mein: not salty from excess soy sauce. My 2 yo loves noodles, but has hated Lo Mein from every place we've tried except this place. She loved the noodles which anyone with a toddler knows is nothing short of a hallelujah! Especially when entering the extra picky phase! The general Tso's also had great flavor. Sesame seeds added on accident, but the worker called it out and asked if that was okay (which it was for us). The egg rolls are huge and also felt fresh. They remind me a little bit of an imperial roll. Definitely a must get if you like egg rolls. The crab Rangoon: not greasy and had really good flavor. The wanton wrapper is a bit thicker than my personal preference (I prefer it lighter and flakier). Best Chinese food since I've lived in San Francisco!

First time trying here and like golden dragon in the Greensboro area. The food was really good. Staff was friendly, atmosphere is clean and the ambiance was nice. The pork lo mein & veggie fried rice is good and the egg roll was really good. I do recommend getting some good chinese take out for Greensboro

Just an update of a 5 star review! I ordered my usual-a mini buffet for family coming over! I'm telling you guys, I walked in about 20 after calling (needs a little more time on the weekends) and was third in line w no one behind me. By the time I got to the front paid and turned to walk out, there was a line to the door. Call ahead people!

Since my first visit/review a month ago, I've been here once a week. My goal is to try new things every time I come. So far we've had the sesame chicken, crab Rangoon, (another) general tso, and tonight was chicken shrimp in garlic sauce with lo mein. 10/10 for everything, every time. My friend got chicken lo mein and said it was the best one she ever had. Consistently the best place. See you next week, thank you!

Honestly, Golden Wok never disappoints. You get A LOT of food for minimal price and it taste great. Given how busy they are their service is good, I get my order quickly, and my order is always right. I would recommend getting a combination plate since it comes with a large egg roll and is enough for two people. If you're looking for a night in and craving take out Chinese food-this is the spot.

I've had Golden Wok pre pandemic and can say this place has changed dramatically since then. A recent visit had me realizing this place stands head and shoulders above the rest. I've had Chinese food on the West Coast many times and this compares to it. I can't say there's anything that original about the menu, you get a selection of all the typical take-out Chinese dishes, and they're done really, really well. It's not just chicken chop suey, it's DELICIOUS chicken chop suey. Their white rice is perfectly sticky and dense. For me, this place ruins all the other Chinese options in town. The beauty of all this - I'll have leftovers for dinner tomorrow as well. The large orders of dishes are epic.

Friendly cashier and staff! Stopped by for lunch and ordered off of the lunch menu roast pork Lo mein and chicken in garlic sauce both accompanied with veggie fried rice. Food was great. Veggies nice and fresh and oiled perfectly chicken was tender and fried rice not greasy-a plus. Pork lo mein full of roast pork and very tasty. Would definitely come again! My only complaint is the use of styrofoam cups and food containers. We did not order to go so it would have been nice to be served in a more earth friendly container! Otherwise pleased and will come again!

My second review, the food is amazing, I've order several different dishes and I'm never been disappointed. This establishment it's always crowded, the wait is not that long. I highly recommend the Golden Wok if you're looking for Chinese food within High Point Greensboro area.

I don't post reviews much but I really enjoyed my meal. I ordered a sweet and sour chicken meal with fried rice and an egg roll and this has been the best Chinese food I've had since moving down to North Carolina from New York. The egg roll was so crispy and full of flavor, didn't taste rotten liken every other place I've tried so far. The chicken and rice came plan with the sauce on the side and I loved that, kept the chicken crispy and rice fresh. I definitely will return and try something else soon. Also super friendly staff, seems to have a lot of regulars that come in and the staff knows their names and orders. This is just my experience. Thank you Golden Wok!

We decided on Chinese food for dinner. Nothing close is really very good so after reading the reviews on Yelp we gave this place a try. I must say I finally found it. A place that serves good Chinese food. The person who answered the phone was very polite. Even read my order back and asked if we wanted anything else. When we picked up they even reminded me to get the mustard and duck sauces. The food traveled nicely and was still hot when we got it home. We ordered the combination dinners. A General Tso chicken and a Spicy Hunan beef. We also got two spring rolls to try even though egg rolls came with the combos. Both dishes were outstanding. Both rolls were delicious. The combos had a little spice but not hot. Can't wait to try their other items especially the lo mein. I highly recommend this place.

Quality takeout at a great price. Super efficient ordering and pickup process. Easy parking. Nice packaging. It's not really a place I would dine in, but there are tables if you choose. I picked up takeout after work and drove home (about 45 minutes) and everything was still piping hot. The General Tsos is much more flavorful than most places, with a little spice. The chicken was perfectly crispy and the rice was great.

The service, and more importantly, the food, used to be top notch here. Since the pandemic hit, both the food, and service have slid into nothing. For our latest order, via the phone, our order was to be ready in about 10-20 minutes. This was about 2:30pm. Was the order ready as promised? NO! It took until just after 4:00pm to get our order. Then, the chicken was so dried out, you couldn't chew it. The rice was gummy, and our soup was room temperature at best. People that ordered in the store while we waited were in, and out before us. We bugged the young man at the counter, every 15 minutes or so, asking about our food. Last time this happened, it was about 6:00pm, and we understood the wait. The man behind the counter told us to call in our order next time. So, we called it in, and it still took abnormally long. Sadly, we've been eating here for years- it was our go to restaurant that everyone could always agree on. But, with higher prices, less food, the food quality being off, and the service deplorable, we will not be back.

Superior Chinese food! I ordered Hunan shrimp no green pepper as a dinner item. What I got was the lunch portion with an egg roll and fried rice! What a surprise- the egg roll was excellent and the rice was more than good (I rarely eat the rice) to complete the rest it came with jumbo shrimp and an excellent variety of vegetables

Compared to NYC RESTAURANTS GOLDEN WOK IS AVERAGE. Primarily a takeout restaurant. Which says a lot being here in Greensboro N.C. Also...their Pork Fried Rice is terrible! The quality of the very very small pieces of pork is low and is extremely fatty and not that flavorful.

This restaurant is amazing the owner has watched me and my sister grow up they know our name when we call great food down to the sweet tea so good especially the sesame chicken and noodles and house fried short ribs wonton soup And crab Rangoons i would Recommend calling ahead for To-go not much seating but you can sit Down just not at lunch/dinner rush especially on Friday Sunday or Saturday great down to earth restaurant owners are amazing I would recommend for anyone looking for great Chinese food 1000000000/100000000

I have had takeout delivered to me twice from this establishment and it's always good. Probably one of the best takeout Chinese food I have had around in GSBO. The Sweet and Sour Shrimp cooked perfectly and the quality is a thumbs up. Egg Rolls are crispy not greasy or over cooked. The pan fried dumplings are meaty and moist. Lastly, the Chicken Lo Mein is noodles of delish. Over all a really great job.

I was visiting my grandkids and thought we'd stop for any easy bite to eat. The reviews were raving so I was excited to check it out. That place was jumping! Very busy, even for a Saturday night. I didn't want to get too over the top as the grands are young so I settled on Shrimp Fried Rice and Shrimp Lo Mein. My excitement wore down after an almost 30 minute wait. Folks that had bigger orders and came in after me were served in a more expeditious manner. I was getting slightly annoyed when they finally called my name. My bad! That was the other Lisa....hmpf! I eventually got mine though and scurried back to the hotel. It was piping hot and the flavor was there but I wanted more than the noodles and shrimp. It was missing texture like bok choy, or cabbage and onions. The fried rice was meh. The rice was more reminiscent of minute rice and unlike the noodles, lacking on the flavor profile. I'm giving it a solid 3 though because the gentleman who took my order was pleasant, and he did regularly check to see what was delaying my order. Because they were so busy, I'd be willing to try it again when they aren't as busy. Don't not try it. It's worth a try.

i ordered chicken chow mein and they gave me a bowl of cabbage sitting in liquid. i don't understand. i waited 25 mins for the wrong order. edit: it won't let me reply to the owners comment. but if you look up chow mein that is in fact NOT what it is.. so are yall making up dishes? i've ordered it from chinese places before and never received literal cabbage in a bowl. so of course i'm confused because it's supposed to be stir fried noodles?
